Seesaw

By Dennis Foon

Charla is the new girl at school, nervous about her shabby clothes and mourning her parents' breakup. Her new friend, Paige, is only concerned with fashion, gossip, and her popular "boyfriend", but soon the emptiness of her life comes to light. Josh, a shy and timid child, neglected by his career-minded parents resorts to magic in order to make himself disappear when victimized by the school bully, Adam, who passes on the rough treatment he receives at home. Inspired by conversations Foon had with young people in the 90s, this poignant, playful and honest play allows youth voices to shine through.

The Forests Wild

By Francis Dowlatabadi

The ECO (Exploration, Conservation, Observation) 11 program is on their end of year excursion, a mostly unsupervised camping trip in the interior of BC. After Sophie kills a weird bug thing, the group hears strange moose-like noises from the woods. Students begin acting strangely and there is perhaps something more than nature at work here. The students must work together to emerge from their flight or fight animal panic to concoct a plan to save their classmates, and maybe the world.
